Description
A mother makes the ultimate sacrifice!
To save her daughter from a lecherous monster,
Duchess Olwen Arenigs offers herself instead.
TAKE ME INSTEAD is a romantasy of sacrifice, second chances, and slow-burning passion, set in the enchanted world of Wyrdwood—where promises have power, winter tests the heart, and love may be the most dangerous magic of all.
slow-burn romance (open-door spice 🔥🔥🔥) second chance love later in life romancecrossover characters from Wyrdwood (Duke Ziggy, Steel, Duchess Olwen)magical setting contemporary world
When a kappa king rises from the dark waters of Fortunate Lake to claim Olwen’s only child as his winter bride, Olwen makes an unthinkable bargain. She promises to spend every winter in the monster’s mountain cabin—trading her freedom, her future, and perhaps her life—so her daughter can escape to Reality and attend a Normal human university.
But winter is cruel, promises are binding, and the kappa’s intentions are far darker than Olwen imagined.
As a blizzard traps her with King Pulcro in his ramshackle mountain cabin, an unexpected protector Sir David Cullhook, a knight long rumored to be cursed to love Olwen. Forced into close quarters by storm and fate, Olwen must confront her trauma, dangerous magic, and a question she never thought she’d dare to ask—can love chosen freely heal what love twisted by power has destroyed?
